A Different Kind of Painting
This week I didn't spend any time creating art in my studio and that is because it was being used for another kind of painting. My dear husband made this china cupboard for me a number of months ago. Our deal with any piece of furniture he makes for me is..."If you build it, I'll finish it." It took me a long time to get around to painting this cupboard and I finally decided to put all art aside until it was finished. Well, here it is holding Fiestaware in my dining room. Didn't he do a wonderful job ?? He builds from drawings I make or pictures from magazines and creates his own plans. Not bad. I guess I'll keep him.

Very talented guy, and I am a total fan of fiesta ware. It looks beautiful in that cupboard.
We might have the same husband! :) They have the same talent, he does it from my drawings too, and we have the same deal about finishing it too! He did a great job, and so did you! :)

Wow! Really beautiful job! He did good!!! Ces will be happy to see this as she loves fiestaware so much! I have a vintage set and you should see how small the dishes are. They really didn't make the dishes as large as they are now. Are any of your dishes old?
Great! I need dedicade any time to my studio, too. Nice Blog!

Awesome cabinet! I like Fiestaware. It's fun to have colorful stuff around. I have a rare set of green ball candleholders from my grandmother, but I dream of finding some super rare stuff at a a garage sale for a nickel.
Aren't husbands wonderful? Tell yours he does beautiful work! It looks lovely.
Beautiful! What a great team you two make!
